A blue light in the sky, a flash, a bang: something has fallen over Kiev. The thesis that a satellite crashed has been refuted. But it wasn’t a new Russian weapon either.
No time? blue News summarizes for you
- On April 19 at 21:00 CEST a blue flash can be seen over Kiev.
- At first it was assumed that it was a NASA satellite whose crash had been announced.
- Now the authorities are waking up to the fact that a meteorite has fallen over Ukraine.
When a mysterious bluish light flickers over a capital that cannot be explained at first, the hour of the speculators comes: A celestial phenomenon on April 19 at 21:00 CEST causes the population of Kiev as well as the supporters of conspiracy theories to get excited.
“UFO falls in Kiev,” it sounds here. “UFO attacks Russian missile,” they trumpet there. “A crashed spaceship?”, is worried asked.
While aliens are probably not to blame for the event, a crash from space is not initially dismissed out of hand: a tumbling Nasa satellite is said to be responsible for the flash of light over Ukraine. But then the American space agency denied it.
At the request of BBC Nasa announces that its satellites are all still in orbit. She had previously announced that the 300-kilogram RHESSI satellite might fall to earth on April 19, but that didn’t happen.
So what is the phenomenon all regarding? Has Russia even tested a new type of weapon in Kiev? The Ukrainian air force believes that there is nothing to these theses either: an air alarm was raised, but the “air defense was not deployed,” reports Serhiy Popko from Kiev’s military administration on Telegram.
But now the Ukrainian space agency wants to know the reason for the flash of light. This was also seen over Belarus: the most likely cause of the sky glow be a meteoritewhich fell into the atmosphere.
